takes place after the last episode of the first season. I forgot the name and it's a cute little story for all you Jackson/Melissa fans like me.
God... thank you. Jackson thought.Here he was, in a tropical paradise, staring out at the sea, thinking about Melissa. And he couldn't believe that she liked him, of all people. Jackson, who, only a few days ago, was a screw up; a failure at life if you must. Everything he did was wrong, every person he met was either scared of him or indifferent toward him.
And then there was Melissa. Loved by adults, liked by everyone. She was the perfect example of kindness, loyalty, respect. The "good girl." Despite the fact that she could be friends with anyone on the island, she chose Jackson. At first Jackson wasindifferent toher attempts to befriend him and have him open up to her. He thought maybe it was a joke; a cruel joke, designed to make him look like an idiot. Well, I can't look like more of an idiot than I already am, he reasoned, so he slowly started warming up to her.
To his surprise, she was completely different from what he believed. Deep, caring, and trusting,she shared with him her thoughts, ideas, and fears; Jackson, in turn, attempted to do the same. At first it was just a little bit of information at a time; he still did not let his guard down for fear that she would get creeped out and back off. When he realized that she wasn't backing down soon, he stepped up his efforts to try and make her get creeped. After all, everyone else did.
But Melissa didn't. Even after he had confessed about his past, about why he didn't want to go back home, she still didn't leave. And slowly, Jackson shared. He believed she was the person on the island who cared for him most. That she alone was the only person who could withstand anything; he trusted her completely.
But the one thing he couldn't trust her with was his heart.
I know, slightly boring and short. I promise, the next chapter will be more interesting. hope you liked it, read and review :)
